Just snapped up 20/1 from B36-5 NRNB. Looked a nice type, winning a fairly hot event.

Thoughts?

he is going

"I was very nervous about running him on this ground but he did everything impressively and he has a bit of class.

"I wanted to run him in a good race and after that he'll go to the Triumph. Daryl gave him a great ride.

"Going there (Cheltenham) on the back of just one run over hurdles is not ideal but he's been schooling three times a week so he'll jump plenty of hurdles."

Thanks Paul. One for next year or one for the Triumph make your mind up.

Ye I know that reve. You would hope most 4 yo's would still be improving the following year but the point I'm making is he could have been a bit more helpful regarding today.

well he wasnt a real strong traveller through the race and did his best work in the back end so it wouldnt surprise me if he looked good but not top class at home
